Round 3: streetdirectory.com with Google vs LTA
Round 1: Streetdirectory.com vs individual websites
Last year, streetdirectory.com issued statements to the owners of individual websites who use their maps to either pay up or remove the maps. Typically, these individual websites owners place the Street directory maps on their company’s website to show location of the company. So it will be easier for clients who wants to locate and visit them.
Winner: Streetdirectory.com
Round 2: Streetdirectory.com vs LTA
Streetdirectory.com was forced to close shop on April 1st 2008 this year. And some of us thought that was an April’s fool joke!But that is real!. The High Court has upheld the orders made by the District Court and dismissed the appeal by streetdirectory.com
Winner: LTA/SLA
Round 3: Streetdirectory.com with Google vs LTA/SLA
Streetdirectory.com has now work with Google to provide the online maps. Good move! We tried out the new services and believe there are some bugs which needs to be sorted out. Other than that, it looks like business as usual for Streetdirectory.com
